Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) DART provides mass transportation to/from Plano and around the Dallas metroplex. There are two transit centers in Plano, strategically located on the east and west sides of the city. The west transit center is located at 15th Street and Coit Road, near major employers such as Alcatel, Medical Center of Plano and Dallas Morning News. The east transit center is near U.S. 75 and Archerwood Drive, in proximity to government and county offices, several large office complexes and retail shopping districts. DART also operates one of the nation’s newest light rail systems serving the Dallas metroplex. From Ft. Worth via the Trinity Railway Express to the Dallas Zoo, DART has numerous stops throughout Dallas and is developing northbound routes to connect Plano and other suburban cities such as Richardson, Garland, Carrollton, and Farmers Branch. In 2002, DART opened two light rail stations in Plano at 15th Street and Parker Road. DART’s light rail gives Plano residents alternative and convenient travel choices for work and leisure.
